Though Kerala is the southern most State in India, it wants to take an active interest in the activities of All India Talik Sahu Mahasabha. It is strongly felt that if the members of our com¬munity living scattered all over India can unite their efforts and put forward a common agenda we shall be able to bargain for a larger share of the social security measures provided both by the Central and State Governments for which very huge sums of money are being provided in the State and Central Govt, Budgets annually. It is time for us to realise how unorganised we are, how poor we are socially and educationally and also that we have been living all these years without making any political bargains, though we are a strong ten out of every hundred per¬sons in India. It is a right thing that we have decided to make our presence strongly felt at New Delhi, the organization already presented the charter of our Demands to the Central Government.

Well known distinguished and honourable National Leaders who belongs to Tely community
